The Electronic Report Line (ERL®) is an essential risk management tool that offers a
simple, efficient, and secure method of reporting incidents, misconduct, or
grievances, including fraud, harassment, criminal acts, discrimination, hazing,
violence, alcohol, theft, embezzlement, among other matters. Utilizing ERL’s
technology-based initiatives, conscientious organizations can provide an open avenue
of communication to report incidents anonymously and confidentially. This type of
reporting procedure is not only required for all public organizations under Section
301 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, but it can also help organizations establish the
Faragher/Ellerth affirmative defense under Federal employment discrimination laws.
